The Helping Hand Program provides scholarships to families in need to attend the Annual Family Conference. Our goal is to help as many families as possible. Please only request what is needed to make the trip possible so we can help the most families as possible.
Grant funds are only available for expenses associated with the conference – they may not be used for Disney passes or additional nights at the hotel. Recipients are asked to fully participate in conference sessions.
There are two ways to receive a Helping Hand Grant:
1. Receive ONE FREE conference registration by selling $570 worth of raffle tickets by April 21, 2012. The cash value of one free registration is $285; the other half of the $570 goes into the general Helping Hand Grant Fund to assist with other conference expenses, such as hotel and travel. Only $10 for 6 chances to win $1,000, $500 or $250!
2. Request a Helping Hand Grant application by contacting Kim at 800-906-8723 or
